Default Anyone do the speed factory uel catted header?

This will be my next mod. I want that true rumble like my 04 wrx and i guess an uel header is the only way to achieve that goal. I really don't wanna go too loud so I'd like to keep the cat so that narrows my search down to just one available header.

If you have it how does it sound with full exhaust? The youtube vids never soundgood so it's tough to go by that.

The rumble is nice, just don't get super stoked because it won't be as rumbly as a wrx.
I had the borla which is significantly more uel and it was really only rumbly from 1k-3k.

It shouldn't be very loud at all, but that depends on what exhaust you go with.

I have the Tanabe Medallion exhaust now and plan on the speed factory header and front pipes to make it a full exhaust. I just wanna hear from some one who has the speed factory one who knows first hand.

I seem to remember that there are A) long delays on the speed factory and B) significant quality issues.

There's a 3 month wait and some people gave them a lot of grief over there prototype welds. They have since posted the finished product and it looks great. There's not exactly a lot of catted uel headers to choose from haha.
